Water is a colorless and odorless liquid. It can exist in solid, liquid, and gas states. It boils at 100 degrees C and melts at 0 degrees C. Which option best describes this information?

The atoms in a sample are close together but can slide past one another. As the atoms lose energy, they move slower. The atoms become locked in place because of attractive forces between themwhich change of state is taking place?

Sometimes in the lab we collect the O2gas formed by a chemical reaction over water (see sketch at right). This makes it easy to isolate and measure the amount of gas produced. Suppose the gas evolved by a certain chemical reaction taking place at 55.
